✭I appreciate the limit, it reminds me to weed out anyone on my list who hasn't logged in for months (Years), a temporary add for the sake of some trade or craft deal or w/e, or just someone I haven't played with/spoken to in a long timeIf you quote someone, and intend for them to see what you have said, be sure to Mention them with @[insert name].0 -

I can understand deleting old inactive people. But about those you have not spoken to in awhile, why not just pm them? You can strike up a conversation. One person I did this and it was funny because neither of us remembered where we'd met. But he or she was cool and we talked again a little.Edited by CaiWenji on April 13, 2017 4:40PM0 -

Play a little longer! I started with one, my brother. All it takes is one or a few great people to keep you playing. As you keep playing that list will grow indefinitely. Just last night met a play who came over from WoW. I never played but she mostly nothing so me and another one of my friends grouped up with her. Got her blue set gear. Asked her if she had a horse yet, she was saving and had 3K to her name. So we took out 10k and was she authentically happy. Finally a mount she can ride with not paying any cash. We gave her many tips and added her to our guild. I was on a new lv 12 bow DPS my older friend on a new healer, and my new friend, she is a DPS sorc with lightning destro. We were queued 18 mins( lol where all the tanks at?) while doing a delve and killing spiders and spriggans in the field. Then we just decided to walk to banished cells 1, left the queue, and completed it as 3 amigos. Wasn't bad at all only time we died was the fire daedra lady that summons a clanfear boss. The boss is easy but at first it's guarded by lots of ice mage skeletons. Anyway it's people like these 2, that I love adding, chatting and grouping up. Ryv's old friend funny and a power sorcerer on her main. Iza is our newest friend and guild mate and I look forward to helping her learn this game all it's fun features!
OOOH YES I had it recorded! Well missed out on the first boss but yeah! This is awesome!

AndrewQ84✭✭✭Screw the friends list. I want more slots for my ignore list. That is something that would be way more useful than adding more slots to a friends list.Sa'hira of the Shadows, DC Nightblade and ruins explorer extraordinaire.

✭✭✭100 max friends is ridiculous. I have to delete 5-10 people weekly to make room for more. In all honesty I have a massive amount of people that sell me mats, ap and tel var ect... Usually on a daily/weekly basis. It's been at this kind of point for years. I guess in an "MMO" 100 friends is supposed to suffice, which it clearly does not. Have heard tons of people complaining about the cap.
I'm just curious -- what benefit are you getting from having those people on your friends list? Does it help with a chat filter? Are you actually communicating with them? Or are some people you do in-game business with or group with?
If people want the number increased, they should list what value they are getting from that and how their in-game experience suffers from the low number.0 -

Why are so many people against making friends? Why is society becoming anti-social? I mean this is still online where we areall in our own house. But that doesn't mean we can talk on the mic, chat in the game! And meet people ALL over the real world all while playing in The Aurbis!0 -

✭I think its the time spend ingame, that makes it hard to have more then 100 friends, to talk with, play with and actually get to know on a more personal level.
Dont get me wrong, my list is full as well, but I dont keep people that are offline for 1 year for the most part. Im in two 500 member pve guilds, so maybe thats why I feel no need to drown my friends list with people I might play with once or twice.1 -

I'm not sure why you list me as being against having friends. I am just saying that saying "we need a larger friend list" is useless. You need to say why 100 isn't sufficient and show it isn't just because you want a lot of connections like the strangers who hope I'll follow them if they follow me in social media.
Make a compelling case, and there is an increased chance of them increasing it. There is nothing wrong with having to delete friends if you still have people on the list from a year ago who haven't logged on in 6 months. Making people cull their lists is not a bad thing. What is bad is if people are dropping people who still add value to their gameplay because, in their case, everyone in their list does.0 -

That is great to hear, you have more than me! I am just thinking ahead! In the future I want many more active friends, right now most seen on at prime times are like 15-35 or so, varies kind of. But if they increase the limit, Like said earlier with more friends on means a chance with more friends online!DaveMoeDee wrote: »Screw the friends list. I want more slots for my ignore list.

Yeah but I am super social these days, And like I said a THOUSAND times (Hyperbole so don't quote me and kill me), With around 10 people deleted I have 90 friends at this time. Those 90 friends have all been on recently(recently is a vague word imo recently counts to the OLDEST offline friend being on 3 months ago.) I talk to everyone, in /z, /say, and /g1-5 (Well 4 now looking for another more active one). Anyway my point is WHY IS THERE A LIMIT? You ask me to support why I need one, I am asking, and you defend this, Why is there a need to limit adding people when there is so much potential and social connects that way?0 -

Whatever intention you had with that post, here's my view of friends list and guildlist.
They're part of social network. The bigger it is, the bigger are my chances of randomly being able to find an online DD/Tank/Healer for whatever dungeon or party I intend to hold, the smaller those lists are the worse are my oppertunities.
100 people on friends list sounds like a lot, however people log in with different characters who have different roles, and at different hours of the day, and they have different obligations (raiding, pvp etc) - so even with a full active 100-friends list, you will still struggle finding a party member sometimes.

Double your friends! See guys? ESO plus is worth while. Now excuse us while we rename more DLCs to "Chapters" and sell them outside the subscription model.0
